2015 March & Art Contest Theme:

"Freedom Songs"

Welcome,

The Huron Valley Martin Luther King Jr. Day Committee will host a series of events open to everyone in the Huron Valley Community and the Metro Detroit Area.

Our 10th Annual Celebration events provide opportunities to serve the Beloved Community, while celebrating the life and legacy of Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. in a continuing effort to realize his dream as ours.

The SHAC will open its doors to everyone to come together creatively in fellowship to create their HVMLK 2015 Artist Contest submissions. Gather to get ideas and inspiration for your contest submission, make new friends, and access all of SHAC's art supplies for $5, or bring your own supplies for no charge. HVMLK Day will provide printed lyrics from Freedom Songs, historical and artistic images associated with the Civil Rights Movement, along with music as a source of inspiration for your original Artist Contest submission. SHAC is located at 125 South Main St, Suite 700, Milford, MI. All children 12 and under must be accompanied by an adult.

Visit downtown Milford to see the 2015 Art Contest submissions on display!
